@bookstodon very hard to choose.

I could probably do 13 books to know me in fiction, general history/American 19th century history and another for American 20th century history 🤣

Did just make itself worse? I used to be able to find "reading activity" for a given book that would show a complete history: when I added it to a shelf, when I started reading it, when I finished, and the same if I read it again, and so on. GR never made it obvious where to find this information -- it was always in an obscure location that made no sense -- but now that history seems to be gone or at least inaccessible. Am I the only one missing it? @bookstodon

Meanwhile, via Politico:

BREAKING: Illinois Supreme Court upholds Illinois law banning the sale of assault rifles, high-capacity magazines and rapid-fire modifications.

@GottaLaff the real issue with that state is it's law free neighbor, Indiana.

I don't have the receipts in front of me but I'm pretty sure most illegal guns in Chicago are from Indiana, which borders the city. Gary, Indiana, is a suburb of Chicago.

That's the best part of Republicans pointing to violent crime in Chicago and saying gun laws don't work: it's Indiana's loose or lack of gun laws driving violent crime in Chicago. Not Illinois.
